Our Vision​

To provide a space in which children are free and trusted to learn and thrive at their own pace, guided by their own curiosities and supported by skilled adults within a loving community.

The Mission

 

KindKin is an environment for self-directed and intentionally guided education. We encourage  children to pursue activities and experiences based on their curiosities while also benefiting from direct instruction that builds foundational knowledge and skills.

 

We are a community dedicated to cultivating knowledge, fostering skill acquisition, and facilitating personal development. Our offerings balance child-led exploration with purposeful teaching, rooted in trusting relationships between children, families, and educators.

Our Daily Rhythm

We start the day with direct instruction in core subjects in mixed age group cohorts, followed by Morning Meeting. This meeting is where we plan the rest of our day together - facilitators and children alike can propose an offering such as an activity, game, or lesson. We go for a walk on the trail or take an outing to the park. The afternoons provide plenty of space for mixed age group play and projects and then we end each day with a big group cleanup!

Founder, Director & Facilitator
Jessica Seevers
Jessica, she/her, has been working alongside young people since 2005 developing a deep understanding of how children learn, grow, and come alive when given the right environment and support. She helps people liberate themselves from cultural norms while discovering what they are excited about and passionate about. Jessica loves to play, create and maintain culture, build community, do all the crafty things, dance in the desert under the moon, frolic in nature, transmute plants into medicine, preserve the local bounty through fermentation and canning and learn a million new things at once. She is fluent in hyperbole and sarcasm while being unapologetically her wild and free self. Jessica's core pillars include trust, safety, communication, connection, playfulness, community and fun. She is actively deschooling herself and eager to help others question their why and dive into deschooling.
